This thorough review of accident prevention in chemical operations emphasizes the reasons behind rules instead of just the rules themselves. The revised edition includes chapters on hazardous chemical waste disposal, pressure relief for chemical processes, toxicity and the TASCA law, developments in fire extinguishment, and updated information on chemical experimentation. Text includes a list of carcinogens, a list of chemical waste sites targeted by the EPA, and bibliographies to encourage further reading.

The year 2002 sees the centenary of J. A. Hobson's Imperialism: A Study, the most influential critique of British imperial expansion ever written. P. J. Cain marks the occasion by evaluating, for the first time, Hobson's writings on imperialism from his days as a journalist in London to his death in 1940. The early chapters chart Hobson's progress from complacent imperialist in the 1880s to radical critic of empire by 1898. This is followed by an account of the origins of Imperialism anda close analysis of the text in the context of contemporary debates. Two chapters cover Hobson's later writings, showing their richness and variety, and analysing his decision to republish Imperialism in 1938. The author discusses the reception of Imperialism and its emergence as a 'classic' by the late 1930s and ends with a detailed discussion of the relevance of the arguments of Imperialism to present-day historians.

This contributed volume provides much-needed practical information for setting up and operating a safe chemical laboratory. The reader will learn to discern whether close calls or non-events have happened, and how to identify and eliminate their causes. The book consists of five chapters. Chapter 1 covers organization for safety in laboratories. Chapter 2 describes precautionary labels, including OSHA, DOT, and other labeling systems, and material safety data sheets. Discussed in chapter 3 is the training and drill of staff, along with a selected bibliography. Chapter 4 covers the physical layout of the laboratory, including protective equipment, communication, ventilation, electrical hazards, storage, and emergencies. The last chapter rounds out the subject of accident prevention with a description of safety inspections and safety audits. Also contained are very extensive appendixes.

Incidents That Define Process Safety describes approximately fifty incidents that have had a significant impact on the chemical and refining industries' approaches to modern process safety. Events are described in detail so readers get a fundamental understanding of the root causes, the consequences, the lessons learned, and actions that can prevent a recurrence. There are exhaustive investigative reports about these events, allowing you to apply the resulting safety principles to their current operations.

This publication contains guidance on how to develop and use safety performance indicators to measure the success of chemical safety programmes related to the prevention of, preparedness for, and response to chemical accidents. The guidelines are not prescriptive but rather provide suggestions for elements that might be included in a voluntary programme appropriate to a particular setting, and give advice on the process of establishment and implementing a scheme. Examples of activities and outcome indicators are given which have broad application for industrial enterprises, public authorities and communities.
